Holiday Memory

New Year’s Eve

My favorite holiday memory was when my friends and I went to the W hotel in Midtown on New Year’s Eve. While our parents went to a party downstairs in a hall, the kids were in a luxury suite hanging out. There were two Wii’s and one Xbox. There was also a connecting room and a big master bedroom with a gigantic bed. Dinner was plentiful; we enjoyed having chicken fingers, pizza and fries. We watched the news and counted down until New Year’s Day. At 2 in the morning, exhausted from the day’s events, we all went to sleep. That was a New Year’s that I would never forget.
